I need HELP in Brazil!!!
 

Hi there,

My motorbike broke down again (KTM 1190) and this time it looks like I can't just fix it on the road. Water entered my cockpit and caused serious electronic problems.

Anyhow. My German dealer can organize a new cockpit. Installation will be Plug and Play. I just need to get it somehow to Brazil...

Since customs in Brasil is insane expensive I am searching for someone, that is maybe flying to Brasil soon.

I am in Campo Grande right now. Sao Paulo and Rio are kind of close. But once in the country shipping is save and easy as well.

Cheers Martin

Usually water is not the problem .. once it drys out. And it has not carried any dirt/salt etc in.

Best thing to do? Wash it with clean water (gets rid of the salt/dirt/etc). Place in the sun to dry out. If your in a hurry methylated spirits (denatured alcohol) will mix with the water and evaporate faster. For things that are in boxes - open up the box as much as possible, clean and dry as above. Connectors are a problem in that they can contain water in there recesses .. again open them up.

The worst thing to do? Turn it on while it is wet... if you have done that already you may have blown something up. As you have little to lose, try drying it out.

To dry out faster put in in a bucket of white rice.
